Use Windows -- wait, you already do, you liars

all i remember about the whole GUI thing is that Apple got the design from Xerox then MS took that same design and when Steve Jobs badmouthed Gates about it, Gates said "just because you broke into Xerox and stole the TV doesn't mean i can't go in and steal the stereo"
i actually like Bill Gates, he's so smart that it just blows me away but his company slowly went down the shitter..... i miss Windows 3.1        now that would make a killer server OS.

I'm telling you Chooco, Read the link I respond to Harry's post with. The Xerox thing is all screwd up in Urban legend and crap.

As for Bill Gates being a Genius. So was Hitler    .

He is a buissness Genius, he is certainly as ruthless if not more, than the dude in Wallstreet. But beyond that I give him no credit.

I don't think Billy G, can see beyond the tip of his nose when it comes to "inovation" or technology for the future. What he can do, is smell money, and like a Junkey running dry, will step on anyone to get it.

Isn't capitalism wonderfull? Fuck Ayn Rand.

EDIT: Ya, dump this fucking thread before Harry Ballz, decide's to post again.

I will be the lame one, and say,


 Harry hold that thought and pull my finger.

[Bazoukas]

Its a different thing if you wanna open a debate, and its another thing going in a forum and calling everybody bitches.

  People come here mostly to learn about Linux. This web site made me switch to Linux btw.
 If you dont like it, leave and go to forums were MS users hang around.

 BTW why there is a need to come and talk smack about a community that doesnt have a clue <insert sarcasm here>, and doesnt have a capitol big as MS?

  Hmmmmmm, me thinks MS techies are afraid for their jobs.

How many times did you have anal sex with Harry before he listed your website in his profile?

I mean come on, even for an anti-Apple website it sucks. It says: "Comming soon" for over six months now.

Better start up FrontPage Express and start clicking buttons, because your embarasing yourself with this stupid website (and with many other things too).

[HPC GUY]

yet another fool who gets a hard on from attempting to piss people off.

[Smoke974]

Damn.
Horseh!t.
And by I mean the sh!t that comes from a horse.

It would never cross my mind to go to a Microsoft forum and broadcast that Linux or [wossname] is loads better there, or to register into the www.britneyspearsfanclub.org forum and advertise for NineInchNails there.

But, it happens, people have time to lose showing the whole world (ok ok, only the forum members ...) how silly they can be    

Peace !

Being the bored person that I am, I decided to join a Windows XP forum so that I could argue the merits of linux.....lol

The site is http://www.windowsxpuser.com and my screen name is LinuxUser. I have yet to post, so dont expect much controversy yet.

[Chooco]

that Xerox GUI thing is not an urban legend it really was on TV. Bill Gates actually said that on TV.

[lazygamer]

Just because it is on TV does not make it true, rather the distorting or forgetting facts, sometimes the media will outright lie whether they realize it or not.

In this case the media is not lying though, because they are just reporting what Bill Gates said.

[psyjax]

And even if Bill Gate's said that, that is only his opinion and does not necissarly reflect the facts. The guy at MacKido, has a very good argument against Billy G., backed up with facts, Logical analysis, and actual corespondance between the writters of the OS.

So, in cunclusion, Bill Gate's can suck my big fat A-hole for all I care. He's a dipshit.

I swear, you think with the GNP of a small country in the bank, Bill Gates would do some good with it.

Forget about trying in vain to get your Linux distribution to behave, or plunking down tens of thousands of dollars for a Macintosh, when you can use what works!  You can rant and rave about the merits of open source, but you decline to comment on the quality of the software in the first place.  You'd use Linux even if it ran only one program and crashed every 15 seconds, simply because it's "open source."  Open source is a failed idea, because it isn't centralized and there is no authority over it.  Any dope can submit a patch, and very few knowledgeable people contribute compared to all the idiots who probably create more bugs than they fix -- which would explain why open source software has more bugs than any other type of software.  Who are you going to trust your mission critical systems to, some pasty faced kid sitting in his room with no pants on wearing a "think geek" t-shirt, or a multibillion dollar company that is dedicated to providing customers the support they need?  And the idea that "information wants to be free" is ridiculous.  People have a right to protect their intellectual property.  Linux only exists to thwart the efforts of hard working companies like Microsoft and Adobe, turning the computer software industry into a desolate wasteland of "free software."

Don't get me started on Apple.  They are just like Microsoft, except they make slow computers and overcharge for them, and they use a fruit as their logo.  I fail to see why you have no problems with Apple, which in the past has resorted to very dirty tactics against other companies (such as suing Microsoft over using overlapping windows in their GUI -- puh-lease)  Apple acts like they invinted the idea of the GUI when they simply stole the idea themselves from XEROX Parc.  Those liars.

I frankly don't care if open source is "morally superior" to companies like Microsoft, (I don't believe it to be) and even if it were, I would use what works, not what makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside (which Open source doesn't; it gives me a sinister feeling instead)  You Linux geeks can take your moral righteousness and shove it.

Another thing, everyone is up in arms about Palladium, the one thing that could save the computing industry and bring order to the galaxy.  Only somebody who wanted to download warez or look at kiddie porn would have a problem with Palladium, and you liars know that.  Palladium will be more private and secure than Linux will EVER be, simply because of the way it's designed.  You can't very easily crack hardware, after all.  The TCPA website's FAQ even stated that they support open source, what more do you want?  Linux users are never satisfied.

Go ahead, use Linux, but get off your high horse and quit acting like every move the software industry makes is an affront to "free software."

OMB, you have shown me the light. I hate having all these errors in Linux and these reboots that i have to do every 15 years, damn i gotta get me windows right away. Then my website will never have to go offline because it will never crash anymore. I am going to go spend $1600 on Windows XP for all my computers right away and throw out these damn free OSes.

[Calum]

yeah, didn't you know that free systems actually cost you much more money?

some pigs landed specifically to tell me that.

[sAvAgE]

Listen Here Harry you F**k Face, you and your Windoze can lick the sweat off my nuts. As a matter of fact I have not used windoze in my home for over 15 Months (Including my wife as well who got me into linux to begin with God Bless her soul.) I can speak for myself that I am a Linux User, and will NEVER go back to Windoze. why dont you harry go climb back in your Hole and stay there.

[creedon]

Hmm...I didn't get in on the ground floor of this one, but I HAVE noticed that Harry hasn't bothered to reply to the invective that's been targeted at him; chances are, he won't.  I think that he was just cruising the child-porn websites, and spotted FuckMicrosoft and thought it was a site devoted to child sexual abuse (obviously, one of his FAVORITE things).  When it turned out to be a serious Linux advocacy site, he was SO frustrated, he decided to try to drop a turd in our punch bowl.  He just re-hashed a bunch of inane pro-MS comments, posted them, and proceeded on his merry, deviant way, looking for the ever-elusive perfect three-year old  heinie.  He's not coming back, he's too busy looking for something so disgusting that he ought to be confined for even THINKING about.
So long, Harry; don't come around, LOTS!

[sAvAgE]

I read that article and thought I would speak my mind does he get E mail notification like some other forums in this site?
